The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A calm, low-pressure building puzzle where you place structures on a procedurally generated grid without managing citizens or complex mechanics.

What players say

Players describe Shanshui Haven as a relaxing city builder with a distinctive Chinese aesthetic and a soothing soundtrack. The gameplay draws comparisons to Tetris, combining placement puzzles with light strategy, and offers both a competitive highscore mode and a casual mode. Some players wish for more content or additional features.
